💨 Abstract

The Senate adjourned without a bipartisan agreement on confirming dozens of President Donald Trump's nominees. Republicans may change Senate rules to expedite the process in September. The failed negotiations come amid escalating obstruction tactics by both Democrats and Republicans, with Democrats blocking nominees and forcing lengthy roll calls, and Trump pressuring senators to quicken the pace. No deal was reached, and Republicans urged to focus on electoral politics. The content of the Smithsonian display is unrelated to this news.
